| 1 | Onion, grated 1/2 cup | |
| 1/2 | t | Salt |
| 1/4 | t | Pepper |
| 1/2 | t | Ground cumin |

INSTRUCTIONS
Mix everything together and let sit for several hours, overnight, or for just a few minutes. Oil a shallow metal baking dish, put the kebab mixture into the pan and flatten out to about 3/4 inch thick. Then separate the meat with a spatula into strips 1 inch wide and 5 inches long. Leave 1/2 inch space between the strips. (to simulate meat on skewers) Broil for about 6 minutes, turning over once.Serve warm with rice. NOTES : Makes 4-5 pan kebabs.This recipe is found in Sephardic Cooking by Copeland Marks in the chapter on Persia. It says in part "...kebabs are essentially lightly seasoned meats, ashes of charcoal. The meat can be prepared in advance, refrigerated or not, and grilled for family or friends when wanted." I never use the extra oil and would never consider not using refrigeration but it's a great last minute standby. I don't know what the baking soda is for. Preservative? Tenderizer?
